Aircraft to be added into Flightradar24 aircraft database

2011-05-05, 13:46

The airplane information shown on FR24 is not transmitted by the airplane. The information comes from a giant database that has been built up manually during 5 years time. It's based on the unique Hex/ModeS code that is transmitted by the airplane.
Every day there are new deliveries and old aircraft getting new owners, so new information have to be added into database daily.
Help us updating the database by posting the Hex/ModeS code together with aircraft information in this thread. The format that will make it quick and easy for us to update the database is:

We can't just set or update an icon. Correct icon is set based on the ICAO Type code. When correct ICAO Type code has been provided, the icon will be correct.
For privacy reasons please don't report individuals, trustees or leasing companies as airline/owner. "Private owner" is preffered for non-airline aircraft.
Please don't report data where hex-code and registration is not matching (same country). This happens often when an aircraft is transfered to a new country and the new owner doesn't update the transponder data.
List is available on http://www.mantma.co.uk/icao_country_codes.html
This means that an aircraft with hex-code between A00000 and AFFFFF can only have an US N-registration and not Brazil PR-registration or German D-registration or Chinese B-registration.
This will hopefully make aircraft owners more aware of that they are using an incorrect hex-code and also decrease of numbers of errors when hex-code is re-used in country of orgin.

There are about 5-10 people with access to the database that can update the database from the data posted on this forum. Correct data and data provided in the format above makes it easier for the editors to add the data to database and reduces the processing time.
We are focusing on updating the database with aircraft that are equipped with an ADS-B transponder. Aircraft without ADS-B that are not visible on FR24, may be omitted. Normal processing time is from 5 minutes to 5 weeks.
For aircraft that are live there is a faster option to add missing aircraft data. Press the + button in the plane info window to submit the missing data. Normal processing time is 1-7 days.

There are about 300 Chinese planes missing in database. They will all be inserted automatically soon, so there is no need for reporting Chinese planes.

Mike, will this include Macau, currently just one Air Macau A319/320/321 in the database (B-MAN), but you seem to be picking up nearly every flight it operates, so I assume all aircraft a Mode-S equipped
